OMG!!!

Today I started the Army stamina exercise regime with Emily and lets just say so far we have only done the morning ones and we still have the arvo ones to go... My body is screaming and wants me to knock Em out as she can be a drill master when she wants to. (I still do see why she chose me to be her workout partner) - okay so maybe I need to lose some kilo's - but is the pain worth it? Me, I'm not so sure.


Let's just say I wish I was as good at push-ups as this guy,
apparently I suck at them.

On another note: The cladding is up, and the insulation is in (man, that stuff is itchy as all crap) - I think today we are doing the flooring and the inner walls. I will find out what is on the agenda when the Hubs gets back from our work shed.

Doing The Cladding


Okay I am only stopping by briefly to let you all know I have started on the cladding for the office/library extension - fingers crossed we get it done before the rain starts... overcast as hell outside at the moment.

My Upcoming Week

I have an agenda... How well my week runs is how close I can stick to said agenda. With the way I get distracted we all know that could happens so easily this week might just turn into a giant cluster-fuck.

First off I still have no new editor news for MLR (I know I have one just not who it is as yet - to be honest I think my computer ate it). If I don't hear anything by my Monday I'll email and ask.

I have the last 10K of Windblown Kisses: My Knight in Tarnished Armour, which I promised my beta reader (Yoda - aka - James Adkinson) he'll get this by the end of the weekend or the middle of next week by the latest. After he's finished doing his thing with the story line I'm going to sub it somewhere. Not sure where, but as soon as I know I'll tell you all. Though I want to know if before I send it to be subbed would Cinders read through it to make sure I haven't left any major holes in the story line... Let me know if you can.

I have a ton more tax stuff to get together and I have a meeting with our business manager on Thursday in Brisbane... so I have to get that done. (Funny story: I will be able to laugh about it later, but right now I feel like slamming my head against the wall. One of our cats (Toby) decided it would be a good idea to jump up on my office desk, an in the process he knocked down all the carefully separated files so everything fell into a big mess. So now I have to re separate them all because when my mum picked them up she mixed them up even further and put them all together). I plan on fixing them on Tuesday and Wednesday so I have them ready by Thursday.

Emily is getting ready to reapply for the Army... her required amount of years has passed since she had her operation (spleen removed). We have been given the Army work out schedule for her to build up her stamina. Em in all her wisdom has decided if she has to do this then I'm doing it as well just to  keep her company... So if I suddenly drop off the radar you'll all know I've keeled over from trying to run... My body was not built to run - and apparently there is a lot of it.

My hubs has gone out the morning and is getting the supplies we ordered to build the office/library extension so we'll probably start on this as well at some stage today. (When I say we - you all know I mean Em and the hubs - they know how unco I am, and have banned me from touching any of their tools - no matter how good a job I did with helping Ted do reno's in the Tattoo shop: which come to think of it, Ted wouldn't let me touch the tools either, maybe they have something?)

Until July 31 (The Next 56 Days)

I have a headache today - I did so much running around this morning (still no new computer tower - because the guy's shop was once again closed) every time I go there lately he is closed - I think I need to find a new computer guy.

I am still working on Windblown Kisses: My Knight in Tarnished Armour... I am at 54K and I want to try and get the whole story finished by the end of the weekend or by middle of next week at the latest - (only 26K to go).

After that I will concentrate on the following three stories which I hope to have all of them finished by the end of July:

The Lines of Marsden: Living in Shadows (44K to go)
The Diamond Rose: Undercover Hearts (35K to go)
Kody (15k to go)

All up I have 120k to write ~ wish me luck.

Enjoy!
